AUNT CARRIES" ESTATE. - Since the
death in San Francisco recently of " Aunt
Carrie " Williams, an old colored woman
who for many years resided in this CITY,
and was engaged in the hotel and lodging
house business, several heirs to property
which she is supposed to have left have APP
peared, and in the quarrel that has ensued
it has been charged that she came to her
death by poison. Prior to the removal of
her body to this city for interment, post
mortem examination was made, and the
physician making it came to the conclusion
that death resulted from natural causes
seconded by the rupture of a small blood
vessel while vomiting during the attack Of
stomach trouble which proved fatal. 1t
NAV be stated that the remains, inferred in
this city, will be exhumed for further ex-
animation.
